Works great! Clear communication and easy use. The water resistance is very helpful too.

After 3 weeks of having them one of the radios drains the battery in less than 5 minutes after charging the battery completely. It’s useless to have 1 working radio.

I purchased these to replace a set of aging radios that were no longer working. These are decent radios that are easy to use.

The rechargeable batteries that come with the Midland X-Talker radios, when fully charged and used sparingly throughout the day should last about 5 hours. When the radios are heavily used during the day, the charge will be closer to 4 hours. If you are not satisfied with the performance of your radios, please reach out to [email protected] and the Customer Experience team will discuss options with you.

Bought to help with our move using 2 vehicles. The battery drains very fast, like 2 hrs or less., i had to keep it charged. Figured it will not do us good if going hiking and unable to charge.
I returned mine.

Hey there, I just wanted to comment that there is a large difference in the environment of a vehicle to vehicle communication with UHF radios like these and the environment for hiking. FRS radios require line-of-sight to the other radio user. When used in a vehicle the signal has to get out around the metal and glass that make up that vehicle. That will reduce the range and will cause your battery to work harder, therefore discharging faster. When you are hiking the fixed antenna of the radio is not blocked in the same way as it is in the vehicle. You will see much better range and better battery life when using them for hiking.

You need to be less than 5 mile for them to work. Which was an inconvenience

Awful product, doesn’t work. It charges fully, one of them appears to make a static sound the other is dead. Can’t even return it within 30 days, only within two weeks. Bad deal.

Well on a cruise ship because of the metal, despite the 25 range mile claim, we couldn’t hear well at 1000 ft apart....after a while the ship sec9seized them for the remainder of the cruise.

The items did not perform as advertised. I got a range less than 1 mile in urban settings, and no greater range across open land and water. The item, therefore, did not meet my needs as it was advertised as being useful for several miles.

Please reach out to [email protected] if your radios are not performing for your needs. Range is affected by environment and obstructions, which is illustrated on the package. 1 mile in normal conditions is average for this radio.

It depends on obstruction in the way and line of sight.
